The School of Burlesque is affiliated with the Slipper Room. However, we will not be holding classes there again until 2011. The School of Burlesque operates most often now at 440 Studios at 440 Lafayette in Greenwich Village, NYC (just below Astor Place, across from Joe's Pub, a few doors up from The Blue Man Group sign). When you get to 440 Lafayette there are posters on the bulletin boards in the lobby with the classrooms for School of Burlesque listed. You may go directly to the room; you do not need to check in with the office or receptionist. The address of the location is usually in the header on the page that describes the class. Be sure to check the site the day of the class to ensure there have been no changes. Be sure to be on our email list, which you can join at http://www.schoolofburlesque.com/contact.html if you are not already on it, to be notified in the event of an emergency cancellation such as instructor illness.
You will be able to get driving, subway, bus, or train directions from your location to the address given for the class at hopstop.com. The School cannot provide step by step directions or recommend a train from your location. If you miss the class because you didn't read the location in the listing, you will not be entitled to a refund.
440 Lafayette Studios:
If you are going to 440 Lafayette, please note the number of the studio in which the class is held. If you are not sure, no worries--there are big bulletin boards in the lobby on the 3rd and 4th floor which will list the School of Burlesque studio being used for that class. The studio name will have a letter and a number in it, such as 3B. If it has a 3 in it, you will go directly to the 3rd floor and find the studio which corresponds to the letter. If it has a 4 in it, you will go to the 4th floor and find the studio which corresponds to the letter. You will come directly to the studio without checking in at a desk or office (unless directed otherwise, which is rare).
